Developers Can Create, Deploy and Publish Apps in the Cloud for Free

Vienna, Va., Oct. 18, 2012 — NJVC®, an information technology (IT)
solutions provider headquartered in Northern Virginia, introduces Cloudcuity™ AppDeployer, a new and innovative platform a s a service that allows developers
to quickly create and publish software-as-a-service applications for sale in
the cloud. Cloudcuity AppDeployer is part of the NJVC Cloudcuity portfolio of cloud offerings.

“Cloudcuity AppDeployer is a game changer for the software development
industry,” said Kevin L. Jackson, vice president and general manager,
NJVC Cloudcuity. “Cloudcuity AppDeployer offers an alternative to writing business
applications from scratch the old slow and costly way. With Cloudcuity
AppDeployer, developers and independent software vendors can start building applications
for free, and potentially take enterprise-class software systems to market in
weeks instead of years.”

A key
component of AppDeployer empowers developers with point-and-click tools to
rapidly prototype and deploy applications without programming. Its software
development kit makes it possible to write add-on modules that integrate with
open-source, third-party and legacy systems. AppDeployer makes it easy to
publish apps for sale; developers merely need to set a price, click a button and
their app is instantly available worldwide. AppDeployer also is available as a
licensed product for deployment in customers’ own clouds.

The engine
behind AppDeployer has been employed by the U.S. government and commercial and academic
organizations to build apps for a wide variety of functions, including catalog
management, nonprofit management, team management and collaboration and long-term
care logistics.

Although AppDeployer
is designed for ease of use, it can support the development of complex applications.
For instance, NJVC is developing a disaster management system on AppDeployer that
integrates Google geospatial services. This enterprise system can be deployed on-demand
in crisis-response scenarios by first responders around the globe. The system
showcases how Cloudcuity AppDeployer provides on-demand provisioning and
application multi-tenancy within large and complex organizations.

Important to
software developers in the federal space, AppDeployer -designed apps inherently
align with the National Institute of Standards and Technology Reference Architecture
for Cloud Computing, encompassing all three major cloud service models: SaaS,
PaaS and infrastructure as a service. Cary Landis, NJVC Cloudcuity
platform practice lead, was instrumental in the development of the NIST reference
architecture, and led a NIST subgroup to clarify the PaaS and other cloud
service models.

Cloudcuity
is the NJVC framework for delivering cloud service offerings. This framework
helps users transition their technology applications to a cloud environment,
while cutting spending, improving process and billing inefficiencies and
complying with a myriad of regulatory and security requirements.

AppDeployer leverages a platform
engine licensed from Virtual Global.
